quate representation and influence when
laws are to be made. Farmers are labor
ers, but not any more so than some other
classes of men, and it is jumping at a
conclusion to assume, in advance, that
these siXty-two farmers have been sent to
Austin to try to put in force some of the
wild theories that so-called "labor" lee
turers have expounded In this state.
They are all Democrats at all events, and
thst is a circumstance worthy of note.
We think the people will fad these farmer
legislators a feir-minded, honest set of
men, who will try to do their duty simply
and faithfully, without any manifestation
of hostility to capital or vested rights.
Any other result will be great surprise
to THE GAZETTE and q disappointment as
we'll. We think the timid and nervous
can dismiss their apprehension that capi-
tai and labor will clash during the pres
ent session any more than has been the
case in other years, or that class legsla-
ton is going to. be attempted to any
alarming or material extent.

Another process which the company will
probably buy is that Of treating the
cotton seed with napths, as fax seed
is treated in the West. This pro-
cess, it is said, will yield a larger
percentage of oil at much smaller cost.
1t has been tried In casual way in the
Southern mills but abandoned. There is
fierce excitement and dissatisfaction
throughout the rural and commercial
south st the growth of this monopoly.
1t will be accepted, however, as part of
the inevitable absorption of southern en-
terprise by northern capital.
In the meantime Southern farmers are
beginning to understand what Mr. Ed
ward Atkinson meant when he said: "If
the farmers of Vermont could raise
species OF cotton that produced no lint it
would be their most profitable crop. The
seed aud the stalk would pay them oetter
than anything else they couldraise"

Weekly Crop Summary-A Very Favorable
Showing.
CHICAGO, ILL, Jan. l6.-The Farmers
Review has the following weekly crop
summary: The general tenor Of reports
from the winter wheat states continues
to be favorable for seeded grain. Fourteen
OHIO counties making returns this week
all make favorable reports. The fields
are well protected with snow, and the
plant looks very healthy. Similar reports
are made from thirteen Indiana counties
with one exception, Pike, which reports
a number of fields showing severe injury
from freezing. Eight Michigan counties
make a uniformly favorable showing
The reports were received this week from
twenty-seven Illinois counties, embracing
one-third of those growing winter wheat.
All but five of these report the winter
wheat outlook as favorable. Reports
from five show that the wheat has been
frozen.
The fields are covered with frozen sleet
in fifteen Kansas counties, and the pros
pect for growing grain is considered fair
to good, while Harper, Lyon and Pawnee
counties report the grain as looking bad.
Nine Wisconsin counties report the wheat
outlook as generally favorable.

FORT SMITH, ARK jan. 1.-THE exc

Stephens, an Indian negro, took place
here at $50 to-day, and was conducted
in the usual successful manner, the necks

Lamb bore up msniully until seated on
the gallows, when he shook like an aspen
leaf, but whether from cold or from ner-

Echols, O'DeE snd Stephens were taken
to the Catholic church Yesterday and bap-
tised in that faith, bu Lamb declined to
receive religious Instruction Of any kind,
and went to the gallcws unattended by
minister.
Lamb had asserted that O'Dell did not
help kill Pollard. L. was expected he
would make some statement on the gal
lows, but he said nothing more than was
developed at their trial.
Stephens merely requested Marshal
Carroll not to ALLOW the doctors to cut up
his body.
Echols and O'Dell had nothing to say.

THE CHANGE OF GOVERNORS.

THE CHANGE OF GOVERNORS.
ale roi est mort; vive lie roll" One
governor steps down and out and an
other comes in. Tomorrow the news
papers will speak of Gov. Ross ard eX-
Gov. Ireland. At noon to-day Gen. Ross
will take the oath of office and be In
augurGted ss governor of Texas. THE
GAZETTE'S specials have told how he
left mis- modest home in Waco, amid the
Godspeeds of his friends and townsmer,
and made his progress 10 the state
capital. The Wacoites, loyal to the last,
gave him grand send-off, and az the
towns along the line OF travel hearty
ovations were tende.ed him. Not since
Gov. Coke's first Inauguration has any
executive gone INTO office under cir
cumstances so suspicious as those that
environ the new governor to-day. At the
outset of his official life TIE GAZETTE
tenders its good-wishes for
a career of usefulness and dis
tinction. While Ross was a
candidate for the nomination ThE GA
zETrE opposed him with all the earnest
ness at It's command. 1t did this con-
scientiously and has nothing TO take
back, for under q governmental system
like ours citizens must eyer differ as to
the availability of men and the wisdom
of measures. But that is over now and
THE GAZETTE has naught but kindly es-
teen for the new governor. He is an
honest, well-balanced man, with patri.
otic impulses snd aspirations, who de-
sires TO do his state and people good
service. He is the choice of the people
and it is certain the people will stand by
him in his efforts TO promote the public
veal. May his administration prove
benefcent to Texas and creditable to
himself.

pared for the speculation. This is not,
however, called buying votes, it is "hir-
ing men by the day." and of course the
laborer is worthy of his hire, and to work
for the party no doubt justiies the pay.
An election days work is a little above
the average pay Of day laborer, even by
the schedule of the socialist, but this may
come under the head of skilled labor.
Hereafter candidate will know that the
only way TO secure his election in the Re-
publican ranks is to shire enough men,"

GRAHAM, TEX, Jan. 1.-Within the
past five days three different parties rep
resenting separate railroad interests hsye
come to and passed through Graham,
which certainly means mucn and omens a
boom for our young city within the year
Besides the Gould or Texas and Pacific
and Fort Worth Western reviewers or Ell
gineers, two men came who strangely
sailed under the euphOnius names OF John
Doe and Richard Roe. This fact was not
obtained from the two gentlemen direct,
but from their guide who seemed to
know. He also seemed to know
that he was peid So per
day and his expenses 10
conduct the aforesaid Roe and Doe from
Red river, about five miles west of
Henrietta, direct TO Graham. They
called for and seemed extremely anxious
to see Col. E. s. Graham only, but this
gentleman was on s'scOucn with the
engineers of the Fort Worth Western, so
they secured the services OF an old timer
as guide and stole away SIS quietly as they
came, to Ranger on the Texas and Pacific,
where they made change Of base of
operations, and crossed over the two big
coal basins in Young county. Unfortu-
Gatcly for MesSrs. Roe and Doe
they dropped letter near q
house where they took their
first lunch south of Graham, which re-
vealed their names, and also established
the fact that their mission was ip the in
terest OF the Chicago and Rock Island
Railway Company. Reporters have been
warned not to give publicity to the pro-
ceedings of railroad meetings in Graham,
but when we "cstch on" to anything out
side we use it. The prospects Tor Ora
hams securing three if not four railroads
St very early date is pa. ticularly bright,
which will give US the long-looked- for
boom.
